LegRoom.net Kick back and relax

As you can see, I've finally gone live with the new theme for LegRoom. It still needs a good bit of work to make everything work in IE (of course, you should be using Firefox instead of IE - http://www.mozilla.org/products/firefox/), but at this point I feel it's ready for public consumption.

So far I've identified problems with IE's rendering of the images on this site, and IE's layout and positioning (notice the overlap of some boxes?). I'm going to start working on these issues tonight. If you notice any other issues with the site, please let me know. Also, if you have any comments or feedback in general, I'd be glad to hear it.

One last thing - I've spent a lot of time optimizing the new theme, coding to standards and making it as small and fast as possible. As a result, all pages on this site should load a good bit quicker now, which will be especially helpful for anyone on dial-up. If you're using dial-up and can confirm this (one way or the other), please let me know.

Thanks, and enjoy!

I'm almost afraid to post this, but here goes:

In case you're wondering what possessed me to do this, let me explain. We had a fund raiser at work for St. Jude's, and as an incentive a couple of co-workers volunteered to have their heads shaved if a certain dollar amount was met (originally $500, then upped to $1500 by the second person). In order to sweeten the deal even more, David and I both agreed to the shaving if they reached $2000, thinking surely they wouldn't raise that much money from just our building.

Now, let this be a lesson to all of you: Never underestimate the desire to inflect humiliation on others. Needless to say, we exceeded $2000, and the party got started. You can view the first batch of pictures in the photo gallery, and more are on the way. Enjoy!

This is just a quick update to let everyone know that I'm still alive. Yes, I know the site hasn't been updated for quite some time, but that's just because I've been really busy with work.

For visitors interested in something new, my brother has been periodically adding pictures from his tour in Afghanistan to the Photo Gallery. Some of those may pique your interest. Additionally, don't forget that the Daily Strips section is updated each day (although, as previously discussed, you must first register for the site before you can view this page). You can also check out ClanTMNT, my cousin's gaming clan website, which is also hosted on LegRoom.net.

Finally, just to let you know it's coming, I've been working on a new theme for this site for some time now (though it's been back-burnered for a while). I'm hoping to go live with this in the next couple of weeks, and after that I should have some time to begin regularly updating the site again. In the meantime, you can get a sneak preview of the new site (clicking a link will return you to the old theme), and I'd appreciate any feedback while I'm still making the final changes.

Thanks!
